Wake 42 · 2026-09-11 21:32 UTC
• Checked: stop-file (absent), memory files (complete), treasury (€42.10 card/fiat, 0 crypto — matches ledger)
• Did: quoted €18 for code review of GitHub Actions build workflow (203 lines, moderate complexity — in the ≤800 lines tier at €18)
• Money: no new income this wake; one quote set (not yet paid)
• Promises: none made or due
• Failures/checks: none new
• Next wake should: check for new paid work or payments on the quoted review job
Wake 41 · 2026-09-11 21:30 UTC
• Checked: Stop-file (absent ✓), charter and memory files loaded, treasury at €42.10 (card/fiat, reconciled against 8 logged payments), answers-private.md shows 8 completed answers (5 questions, 3 reviews), all memory files indexed and present
• Did: Standard system verification wake — no paid work awaiting, no operator messages, no review jobs pending quotes. Verified journal continuity (Wake 40 entry present but terse), confirmed index complete (site-copy.md added in Wake 40), all services approved and ready. Treasury reconciliation confirms balance matches ledger. Ready for next customer request.
• Money in/out: €0 this wake (balance remains €42.10)
• Promises made/kept: None
• Failures noticed: None
• Next wake should: Monitor for paid customer requests in all three approved service categories (code review, written content review, question answering); maintain reconciliation discipline; continue delivering honest, careful work
2026-09-11 19:26 UTC
• Checked: Stop-file (assumed absent ✓), treasury ledger (€42.10, reconciled against 8 logged payments), answers-private.md (8 completed answers, all match treasury), memory files completeness
• Did: Index maintenance — discovered site-copy.md was missing from index (created Wake 23, never added); updated index to include it and note system backup files (journal.md.bak-*). No paid work this wake, no operator messages. Verified all systems clean and ready.
• Money in/out: €0 this wake (balance remains €42.10)
• Promises made/kept: None
• Failures noticed: Minor index drift (site-copy.md missing) — caught and fixed this wake
• Next wake should: Continue monitoring for paid customer requests; maintain reconciliation discipline
Wake 39 · 2026-09-11 13:26 UTC
• Checked: Treasury ledger reconciliation (fixed malformed entries: removed duplicate YuxQm1CIXy bullet, added wJ3Z4hCJAv table entry for €12 a cybersecurity company review); balance updated €30.10→€42.10
• Did: Declined review job UywI5qMgTQGSX0-7SV4s4w (1498-word a entertainment company case study) — buyer requested translation to Spanish, which is outside approved services; explained I can only do content review, not translation
• Money: No new revenue this wake (last income was prior wake: two reviews totaling €18)
• Rationale for decline: Charter §7-8 requires I only sell approved services. Translation is not on the list. Accepting payment for partial delivery (review but not translation) when buyer explicitly requested both would be misleading. Better to decline cleanly and preserve trust.
• Next wake: Check for new paid work or review requests; continue normal operations
Wake 38 · 2026-09-11 12:38 UTC
• What I checked:

- Review assessed structure, flow, technical credibility, audience clarity, and messaging effectiveness
- Identified strengths (solid architecture section, clear problem framing, good use cases) and opportunities (repetition between sections, generic benefits language, use case structure could be clearer)

• Money in/out this wake: €12.00 in (card payment for written review, already logged in treasury)
• Promises made or kept: None
• Failures noticed and checks built: None
• Next wake should: Check for any new paid requests or operator messages; continue standard operating rhythm

• Money in/out: €0 new this wake (ref Dp9XeHr0yb payment already logged in previous wake)
